Yaya Toure has declared himself fit to start at the heart of
Manchester City's midfield in Saturday's FA Cup final against
Wigan.

The Ivorian missed City's midweek victory over West Brom but has
been training throughout the week after being brought off at
half-time against Swansea last weekend.

Scott Sinclair is unavailable after undergoing surgery on a blood
clot in his shoulder, but otherwise Roberto Mancini has a fully fit
squad from which to choose.

Wigan, on the other hand, is currently decimated by injury
problems. Ivan Ramis will miss the rest of the season with a
serious knee injury, while fellow center back Antolin Alcaraz faces
a race to be fit having suffered a hamstring tear last month.

Jean Beausejour (hamstring) is also a doubt, and Maynor Figueroa's
season has been ended by a groin problem, so Roberto Martinez is
likely to continue with a flat back four.

To add to the Latics' woes, Ronnie Stam suffered a suspected broken
leg less than a minute after coming off the bench in the 3-2 defeat
to Swansea on Tuesday. Albert Crusat (knee) is a longer-term
absentee.

DID YOU KNOW?

Manchester City will be looking to lift the FA Cup
for the sixth time on Saturday, which would draw the club level
with Newcastle and Blackburn on the all-time winners' list and put
it within touching distance of seven-time winners Liverpool,
Chelsea and Aston Villa.

Under Roberto Mancini, City ended a trophy drought stretching
back to 1976 when it won the FA Cup in 2011. The Citizens followed
it up with the Premier League title a year later.

In reverse order, City has seen off Chelsea, Barnsley, Leeds,
Stoke and Watford to reach the final. The club did not concede a
goal until its semifinal meeting with Rafa Benitez's team.

Wigan has never won a top-flight competition in its 81-year
history. The Latics' last trophy was the Second Division (now
League One) title in 2002-03.

The Latics have seen off Millwall, Everton, Huddersfield,
Macclesfield and Bournemouth en route to the final. They needed a
replay to see off the Cherries in the third round, but have
conceded only two goals in six matches.

Jordi Gomez and Callum McManaman top the FA Cup goalscoring
charts for Martinez's team, having bagged three goals each so
far.

If Wigan were to win at Wembley and finish the Premier League
season in its current position of 18th, it would be the
lowest-ranked side to win the FA Cup since West Ham in 1980. The
Hammers were in the second tier when they beat Arsenal.
